Where to sell books?

[Boreal]

Anyone have any recommendations for the best method or place to sell used theological books?

(Note: I’m in Canada)

Would you have any old Spurgeon books? The only place i seem to find them is on Ebay and Alibris.

check Amazon. If you are not in a hurry and the books are valuable you can do well with FBA. I made some good money a few years ago.

I've bought several books off of the PB.

Being in Canada makes the shipping problematic. Perhaps Amazon is the way to go.

I do, sermons printed in 18-something. But I’m keeping those! Sorry.

You can always list your books here .........

I could. But after shipping to the States I’d be paying money in the end.

Sorry about that I forgot you are in Canada

eBay, Amazon, and Facebook Marketplace are good options. (As you probably know, eBay and Amazon have Canada specific sites. And maybe there is something specific to Canada that would be a good option.) If it is something rare, people just might be willing to pay international shipping.

If you are looking to get rid of them quickly, selling online isn't always a good option unless you are willing to sell them in bulk and at a sharp discount. I was moving once and had to get rid of about 200 books in a hurry. I was able to sell them to a pastor who was looking to replenish a library after losing one in a natural disaster. I might have gotten quite a bit more money if I would have sold some of them individually. But others may not have ever sold individually.

If you have Banner of Truth sets or systematic theology or something like that, I'm confident that you'll eventually find a buyer, even in Canada.

Thank you.
